The Choice: Global Domination or Global Leadership

Zbigniew Brzezinski has a new book:
"The Choice: Global Domination or Global Leadership"

"The Choice is a brilliantly argued, succinct yet penetrating analysis of contemporary global politics and the American role in it. Brzezinski convincingly shows that American security is inseparable from global security and can only be achieved by the United States providing constructive leadership in the cooperative creation of world order. Our political leaders need to read this book and absorb its wise advice."

How Tiny Particles Are Becoming Big Business
"FOR MOST PEOPLE, nanotechnology — or more precisely, technological applications that arise from manipulating matter at the molecular scale of billionths of a meter — exists only in the futuristic realm of science fiction and fantasy. 'Borg' drones on Star Trek relentlessly seek to assimilate human beings by injecting them with “nanites.” Or the nanite-empowered spy from the National Security Agency — the newest six-milliondollar man — commands the center of this TV season’s Jake 2.0. However, nanotechnology has also become a growing research field and a large-scale international business endeavor."
